Impeached 2 is an armchair politician's dream. Play today!

In an unprecedented turn of events, the Senate convened a special impeachment-like hearing today, not for a sitting President, but for a mobile gaming app sensationally named "Throne of Tap: The Sovereign's Quest." The app, created by the tech behemoth "SwipeCo," has been accused of engaging in "high crimes of addictive engagement," by the newly formed "Anti-Finger Strain Taskforce" (AFST).

The AFST, led by the irascible Senator Thumbstitch, claimed that "Throne of Tap" had manipulated the very fabric of reality, turning millions of Americans into tap-obsessed zombies, mindlessly tapping their way through virtual castle defenses while neglecting their civic duties and personal hygiene.

The trial was held in the hallowed halls of the Supreme Court, where Chief Justice Gavelhard presided over the proceedings with a gavel so mighty it was rumored to have once silenced a rogue smartphone notification during a state of the union address. The defense, led by the charismatic and flamboyantly dressed Attorney Tapman, argued that the app was a mere harmless distraction, a "digital diaper" for the nation's collective attention span, and that the AFST was overreaching its mandate.

The prosecution, on the other hand, paraded a series of expert witnesses, including Dr. Fingerphobia, who claimed that the app's use of vibrations and rewards was akin to "psychological warfare," designed to keep users tapping until their fingers were nothing more than calloused stubs.

As the hearing reached its climax, a surprise witness took the stand: none other than the ghost of Alexander Hamilton, who, in a spectral display of digital foreshadowing, had allegedly foretold the rise of such a tyrannical app in a series of tweets from beyond the grave. The ghost's testimony was met with a mixture of awe and skepticism, with some senators claiming that the apparition was nothing more than a sophisticated hologram or a very convincing app glitch.

In the end, the Senate voted to acquit "Throne of Tap: The Sovereign's Quest," but not without attaching a series of stringent regulations, including mandatory "Finger Health Warnings" and a cap on the number of in-game castles one could defend per day.

As the nation watched, the line between reality and satire blurred, leaving citizens to ponder the true power of mobile gaming apps and the lengths to which their government would go to protect them from the perils of virtual thumb exercise. SwipeCo's stock prices soared, and the game's popularity surged, as players across the country vowed to defend their right to tap, swipe, and conquer to their heart's content.
